cde screen logo - logo?

Hi,
Quick question... Is it possible to change the logo on the CDE screen lock... as you can on the login screen??

Thanks,

Nik

Re: cde screen logo - logo?

Hi,

This resouce setting changes the CDE Lock Dialog bitmap image:

Dtsession*lockImageName

It can be set system-wide by adding a line to the /etc/dt/config/C/sys.resources file. Create the file if it does not already exist.

Per-user changes can be made in $HOME/.Xdefaults.

Valid values for this resource can be any file which is able to be viewed in the CDE icon editor (dticon). If the file is in either
XMICONSEARCHPATH or XMBMICONSEARCHPATH, then only the filename is necessary. If the file is not in one of those paths, then the
full path should be specified.

Appologies if I am wrong but I have this working on both 10.20 and 11.00 and you need to put the resource Dtsession*lockImageName : in /usr/dt/app-defaults/C/Dtsession file .... I've found problems putting it in the /etc/dt/app-defaults path and have not tried the sys.resources route ..it might work

Thanks everyone...
In particular Alex, I found the same, that I had to make the changes in /usr/dt rather than /etc/dt
(I actually found an old post with your answer in Alex.. thanks again!)

These forums always come up with the results!
